Yeah just saw that... No IU recruits listed in the 2013 rankings... oh yeah Willis is the 4th tallest guy in his class... I think he could end up being a player that declares early and jumping to the draft... can't remember any purdue players ever doing that... although a few had a chance.

Re: Purdue University 2010-2011 Basketball Thread

Some believe that longtime Lawrence North coach Jack Keefer is "anti-Purdue" but I don't know that there's any validity to that. Even if so, I doubt it would have much affect on Smotherman's verbal to Purdue. I like the way one poster put it on another forum - Keefer is not anti-Purdue or anti-IU so much as he is pro-Jack Keefer.

For me personally, this will mean that I root for Lawrence North a lot more than I'm accustomed to, and a lot less for Heritage Christian.

This is exactly what I was going to say, more or less. Sounds like he may be more of "the guy" there next year and play against better players.

I think playing for LN should be better for him in the long run, I think think the competition should increase by moving to this conference and level... hopefully he will get some of that aggression to his game that hi is missing, and learn to play other roles on the team.

Hey u guys should checkout this chat that was done by the Rivals rankers specifically about the 2013 recruiting class, there is a decent amount about purdue in there as well as some IU, Willis talk, basil talk, ferrel talk, mcgary talk...

That should allow Parea to focus on the PF position, and help Jay with his post game down low.. Hopefully Jay will steal some of Hanners athleticism, Jay moves good for a big guy but Hanner is a beast.

La Lumiere seems to be bringing in a ton of D1 recruits the last couple years. I'd never even heard of them before Marcius. What's the deal there, did they get a new coach/AD that want the publicity or something? Do they even play anyone, they're a private school so they're not part of the IHSAA right?
